Maybe the access panel under the back seat come loose slightly and leaking vapors?

Or your fuel line is leaking and your fans blowing it in the cabin.

Either is dangerous, don't smoke and drive for Gods sake!

I had this and it was a split fuel line. Look for leaking petrol around the area just in front and below of the battery if it's still in the original place.
